Electrical distribution is one of the most important wings in Electrical Power Industry but is given less importance. For most effi cient, reliable and uninterrupted, electrical power supply, proper planning and protection in distribution of power is important. Conventionally, this topic is treated as one or two chapters in Electrical Power System courses and only few universities offer it as a separate course.

About twenty years back, when it was introduced as an elective course for PG courses and later for undergraduate courses, there was no proper book that could be referred by either the students or the teachers. Reference was mainly made to the IEEE Std.. 141 of 1976 (Electrical Power Distribution for Industrial Practices) and also to Electrical Power Distribution Engineering by Turan Gonen which mainly dealt with the practices and systems adopted in US and the American continent. These procedures adopted and other technical aspects were quite different and are neither seen or practiced in India.

All the topics included in Electrical Power Distribution courses are dealt with and a few additional topics added to have a comprehensive idea over Electrical Power Distribution. This book will also help the electrical engineers working in power distribution as well as industrial distribution to improve the quality of power supply. A few worked examples, review questions, multiple choice and short questions are added at the end of each chapter to help the student have better understanding of the topics.
